Contributer, Fawkner head Underwood field

Wednesday 23 September 2015, 6:52am

Weight-for-age stars Contributer and Fawkner headline a field of 12 for the Group One Underwood Stakes at Caulfield.

A first-up winner of the Makybe Diva Stakes, Fawkner has barrier two while Godolphin's Contributer, to be ridden by James McDonald, has gate eight.

Popular galloper The Cleaner will start from the rails while Weary has drawn the outside.

The Underwood is one of two Group One races on Saturday's Caulfield program along with the Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes (1400m) which has attracted a capacity field of 18 and four emergencies.

Former Perth galloper Disposition, now with Lee and Anthony Freedman, has drawn three while Stratum Star has a wide gate in 18.

Last year's Caulfield Guineas runner-up Rich Enuff has the outside barrier with topweight Lucky Hussler faring much better with barrier two.

Petrology, Moonovermanhattan, Yesterday's Songs and Worthy Cause are the emergencies.
